Vancouver Canucks: Jim Benning says captain decision coming soon

With Henrik and Daniel Sedin retired, the Vancouver Canucks need somebody to step up and lead the locker room as they transition towards the post-twins era, but the team hasn’t decided who that will be yet.

But in a recent interview with Sportsnet’s John Shannon, general manager Jim Benning said that the Canucks will decide on the captaincy before the 2018-19 regular season begins. However, he did warn that it’s possible they decide not to name captain.
